To better live through a bereavement

Experiencing grief or living with someone who is grieving is a difficult journey, away from our normal lives. This course alternates between presentations and sharing, if you wish. The training is structured around 3 axes, the personal level, the social level and anniversaries.

In all individuals, grief has physical and psychological consequences, and knowing about them helps to normalize the experience. Even if a bereavement is unique, as much in its manner as in its rhythm, several authors have identified stages of grief. Four ways of seeing the process will be presented. Resources exist, we will present them to you. Then we will suggest tools for special situations, such as anniversaries and celebrations.

A smooth day to understand and normalize the grieving process.

Supporting the bereaved

Around us, in our family, among our office colleagues or in our community, people are experiencing a loss. We are close to them, but do we know how to support them in this difficult journey? Do we know how to be present without judgment?

This training day alternates presentations and workshop sessions around 4 axes: active listening, the helping relationship, resistance to mourning and the factors that influence the evolution of mourning.

A day, marked by authenticity, to gently tame the support and assistance of a bereaved person.

Bereavement training

For schools, educational institutions, businesses, community organizations and any other group of people.

While our society obscures the reality of death, everyone is inevitably confronted with this situation at some point, whether it is a death or the announcement of a serious illness that makes grief predictable. This is true in all forms of organizations, where grief is experienced and where people are grieving.

This training may be of interest to organizations concerned with the mental well-being of the people who work for them. The training aims to demystify grief and help participants deal with it, individually and collectively.

Goals of the training

  • To help understand what grief is and the importance of its uniqueness.
  • To help normalize the emotions and feelings experienced.
  • To identify appropriate attitudes and behaviors towards others.

Duration: 3 hours 

Fees:

  • $300 + transportation costs.
  • A reduced fee is available for non-profit organizations.
